Srinagar: Pakistan pacer Shaheen Afridi confronted an Afghanistan fan in Ireland who had misbehaved with the cricketer.
“An Afghanistan fan misbehaved with Pakistan’s star pacer Shaheen Shah Afridi during the second T20I against Ireland in Dublin,” Geo News reported.
“The incident took place when Shaheen was walking to the ground from the dressing room. The 24-year-old pacer initially ignored the foul language used by the Afghan fan and went on to inform the security personnel after the fan did not stop. The security acted swiftly and removed the fan from the ground,” report said.
Meanwhile in the second T20I, Pakistan successfully chased down Ireland’s competitive total of 193/7 with more than three overs to spare, thanks to a 140-run partnership between Mohammad Rizwan (75*) and Fakhar Zaman (78), giving Pakistan’s standout skipper a record-breaking 45th T20I triumph.
